"Sucker Punch!" Gimansha disappeared from sight and landed a blow to Dusknoir's back before receiving a fiery punch.

"Kinoko, return; Gimansha, I choose you!" Shiranui made the switch before Dusknoir could use Mean Look. It was his Mawile that copped the attack and was thus unable to be switched unless she used a move to do so.

"Kinoko, Fling!" Kinoko threw her Toxic Orb at Dusknoir like an Olympic athlete throwing a shot put.

"Protect!" Kinoko conjured a green shield that repelled the Thunder Wave. The Breloom's Toxic Orb activated and Kinoko was badly poisoned instead of paralysed.

"Hoshi, Thunder!" Hoshi's crystal core glowed yellow as the Starmie spun very fast. Pidgeot was zeroing in, using the glow as a targeting beacon.
